Does that change the fact that people will?
Should Davinson have got boos ?
Still happened.
Are the owners going anywhere? No
Are they still charging top whack for Season tickets?
I’m not going to take it out on VdV, would never boo Davinson. I’m not a season ticket holder either Ion
Absolutely nailed it.
Its so predictable that some of the regime enthusiasts are already starting to hedge their bets and attack a massive section of our match going fanbase before the season has even started.
Whilst I normally would agree with you, that Athletic article on VDV I will forgive as I don't subscribe to The Athletic and wouldn't have been able to read it otherwise.I'd like to propose that anyone who copy & pastes the full text of an article that results in a wall of text gets binned.
Offer him an investment with more secure upside.So, how do we get him to liquidate Tottenham to roll the dice on his other investments?
I'm not sure what your point here is Richard, it's either a cop out or it's not. People continuing to take their frustrations in the club out on a player, and using the "it's the club's fault, they made me feel this way" excuse, doesn't change the fact that it's a cop out. If you want the club to take ownership of the situation, which I agree they should, then you have to be prepared to take ownership of your own faults and failings.
Stones, glass houses etc.
You obviously don't think along those lines, I never really believed you did, but you give license to these cretins, who do think like that, by just saying it.
The club are responsible for the current situation, that we all can agree on. So get on a picket line, organise a protest, make life uncomfortable for the board members who are responsible for our malaise. But the cretins are too lazy to do that, it's far easier to boo a player for some perceived fault, then put the teflon coat on saying "it's the club's fault I'm acting like a c**t towards this player."
No self awareness, no ownership of their own shitty deeds, it's always someone else's fault.
I've never been so disgusted to be a Spurs fan as I was when I heard our own fans booing Sanchez, and I've lived through the scapegoat reigns of Pratt, Galvin, Armstrong, Spider and many others, yet I never once heard our fans boo when one of those players came on.
Stating that it's the club's fault for this behaviour just vindicates the cretins.
We attack your fan base every season gooner.Absolutely nailed it.

Nah, some of that shit is behind a paywall...... Bring it on.
That’s why I did itWhilst I normally would agree with you, that Athletic article on VDV I will forgive as I don't subscribe to The Athletic and wouldn't have been able to read it otherwise.
Who's ''Spider''?
These are great quotes from VDV.
Even if it takes a season, he’s worth it for a rebuild
John Lacy., I think. Center half signed from Fulham, I think, in the 70’s. Awkward looking fellow with long, thin limbs
Spoiler tag that shitWhilst I normally would agree with you, that Athletic article on VDV I will forgive as I don't subscribe to The Athletic and wouldn't have been able to read it otherwise.
John Lacy
I think there’s a big difference between booing players that have been here and struggled for years compared to booing players who make a few mistakes in their first season here.
If we start booing players we just bought, we are fucked cause every player will make a few mistakes in their spurs career.
Emerson was jeered quite early
We shouldn’t be booing any players individually— unless they play for our opponents.
We boo the other team to put them off their game.
Is somehow booing our own, by the same logic, going to somehow improve their game?
I think they boo to try and get players substituted/dropped from future matches.
I wouldn't do it myself but people pay their money, so they can boo who they want I suppose.
It's just generally crappy to boo players. boo the head chef if you don't like your steak, not the waiter.
